In the Roman Catholic Church there are seven cardinal sins, orseven deadly sins, that contrast the seven cardinal virtues. Whensomeone uses the expression committing the cardinal sin, they aretalking about the ultimate sin of Pride.

Romans 5:12 answers this question directly. That scripture says: "That is why, just as through one man sin entered into the world and death through sin, and thus death spread to all men because they had all sinned." That "one man" was Adam. By Adam's rebellion, he made himself imperfect, thus he was… only able to pass on imperfection to his offspring. In our imperfect state, we are subject to sin and death.. ( Full Answer )

Original sin came from when Adam and Eve bit the furbiden fruit from a tree they were not supposed to, thus making God angry. Answer Original sin comes from a desire of the early Church leaders to justify the rite of baptism. Without the evidence of this ceremony, people might be unsure whether th…ey were Christians and waver about following the rules of the Church. Augustine of Hippo (354-430) developed the concept of original sin, saying that everyone is born with original sin, and that it can only be washed away by baptism. Unless Christians are baptised, the stain of original sin means they can not enter heaven. Augustine said that original sin resulted directly from the disobedience of Adam and Eve and was passed down through inheritance to all the descendants of the first two people on earth. The doctrine was adopted by the western half of the Christian Church, but never accepted in the Greek-speaking east. Whether original sin is more than an idea developed by man, depends very much in part on whether Adam and Eve were real, historical people and the actual ancestors of all people on earth. On this, Cardinal George Pell recently stated that the story of Adam and Eve is a myth, describing it as a religious story told for religious purposes. Cardinal Pell went on to say that in his view, atheists will "certainly" go to heaven if they have led good lives, which is almost a denial of original sin and the need for baptism. ( Full Answer )

In my opinion, I believe it's called, "being human". We have the forces of good and evil working amongst us all.

Although some may say otherwise, Harry Potter is not a sinful concept. Some people say it carries "messages of the devil" to kids, when all it really is, is a bestselling, blockbuster movie/book. Despite the fact that it has witches and wizards, the point of it all is a troubled boy trying to restor…e good in the world, not killing and murdering, and, in the end, it is not evil that wins, but good. The books and films teach kids that there is a little magic in all of us, called love. I can understand why parents do not want their kids to read or see Harry Potter, but, really, it is only a few excellent novels and some great movies. ( Full Answer )

The knocking on the door and asking for someone who doesn't live there is apparently based on an event from the directors childhood, as for the murders the main inspiration is Helter Skelter a book about the Manson family.

This question seems to be based on a misunderstanding of what is 'sin'. Sin is not breaking a set of rules laid down in priority order rather like motoring offences or secular legislation to do with robbery, murder etc. Sin is when there is a choice between what God wants us to do and what we want …to do (for all manner of different reasons) and we choose to do what we want rather than what He would have wanted us to do. This may or may not be based on written guidelines or instructions. God has provided means in addition to words, such as conscience etc. to understand basic right from wrong. The Bible however does give lots of detail of sin and its consequences but Jesus summed up living a 'good' (or 'sinless') life with his statement of the two basic commandments: to love God with all your heart, mind and soul and to love others as yourself. If you could do that all the time, you would not sin. Of course, unfortunately none of us can live up to that all the time. When we get it wrong and do sin, by definition therefore, we get out of step with God. Because God loves all of us and wants us to do what is best for us all, sin therefore has some very nasty consequences for either ourselves or others or both. Sin therefore effectively carries its own (albeit often unforeseen) penalties with it. Sometimes these bad effects can linger on for generations hence the 'sin of the fathers' etc. If you take the analogy of God as a father, He is trying to stop His sons and daughters from making mistakes with dire consequences. Because we have free will, we all of course often choose to make the mistakes just as we often failed to heed our parents' (often very wise) advice when we were younger. This is why we have all sinned and have all gone astray. We are not 'good' in any true sense and comparing ourselves to others as either 'better' or 'worse' is quite futile and ultimately unhelpful to ourselves. It can also of course lead to an arrogance which then causes us to behave badly to those whom we consider to be less good or inferior to us. The Bible does not categorise sins in a list of priorities in the way suggested by the expression 'Mortal Sin', although there were different penalties for breaking different civil laws based upon them in Israel and Judah . The expression 'Mortal Sin' is a human description. That term does not appear in the BIble at all. The Bible does list the general principles by which we can lead lives in tune with God and how we could also depart from that path. This starts well before the Ten Commandments, first listed in Exodus (right and wrong are clearly defined in respect of a number of areas right from Genesis 2). Paul makes it clear that these lists of various examples ('The Law') are signposts to where we can go wrong. They are not 'laws' in a secular sense. One of the problems of our modern secular society is that people assume that if it is not illegal, it is not morally wrong. This is applied to everything from tax avoidance to more serious issues. This is the background to ever more legislation being enacted in our secular western societies to try and stop people from behaving badly. Note the present argument over regulation of financial institutions. It does seem to be a bit of a 'chase your own tail' futile exercise however as human ingenuity is always working on ways around laws. It is the principle that is wrong.People must choose to do what is right and does not harm others rather than choosing what suits them personally but harms others and is therefore wrong. What is morally right or wrong does not ultimately depend on very fallible human laws. In this respect the Bible is much more pragmatic and lays down principles and examples from which it should be quite clear what to do in a much wider range of circumstances than can ever be covered by precisely worded human legislation. God also sent the remedy for people not always being able to get it right by providing the sacrifice of the only perfectly good man in Jesus Christ to make up for all of our collective sin, past present and future. This does not of course mean that all material consequences of what we have done will automatically be wiped out by God. The likelihood is that these will still need to be lived with. This is a long answer but I . ( Full Answer )

"Sin" literally means, "to be without a share in; to miss the mark; to err, be mistaken; to do or go wrong." All sin arises out of disobedience to God, and the first sin recorded in the Bible was that of Eve and Adam eating the forbidden fruit in the Garden of Eden.

Absolutely not... Unless you go and repeat what you see onscreen there is absolutely nothing wrong with entertainment. I was raised a Christian and I am sick to death of religious nuts trying to create these unnecessary spiritual rules and stipulations and pretend like they are all-knowing and close… to God because they think that what they believe is right. Watch whatever you want to watch, dear. I absolutely agree with the above view and would like to add the following. Nothing wrong as long as you don't get addicted to it. Too much may create pshycologicall problem since mind is very power full and starts slowly believing in what it sees as natural. ( Full Answer )

Original sin comes from the Augustinian tradition that we are all descended from Adam and Eve, and therefore are all guilty of their sin in the garden of Eden. Original sin means that you are born into sin, hence in the Victorian era it was very common for a child to be baptised as soon as possibl…e to rid them of said sin. Many people do not accept however, that newborns are inherently evil, and the idea of original sin is widely rejected by many denominations. For more information, research the Augustinian Theodicy.

No. We are all sinners, born sinners so we die, so was the case with Mary and Joseph.(Romans 3:23)(Ecclesiastes 7:20)(1 John 1:8)(James 3:2) (Luke2:22-24/Leviticus 5:7+ 12:8) Answer #2 This is one issue where where Protestants and Catholics disagree. Protestants believe all but Jesus are free …from original sin, while Catholics believe in the sanctity of the Blessed Virgin and the immaculateness of her conception to which Mary was conceived without sin. All Christians believe Jesus was without sin but the issue with Mary is controversial. ( Full Answer )

There are many different ways that movie and tv shows get there ideas from. It usually is thought by a writer, producer, director, or some one else in the business. They can be inspired by a true tale (example: 127 Hours, Soul Surfer). They can also get there ideas from a event that happened in hist…ory (example Titanic) or from a book or comic book series (ex: Harry Potter or Superman). Many can come from dreams, personal experiences, or just an original thought. Of course there are many stolen or un-original ideas taken. This has been happening for years. I hoped this helped! :) ( Full Answer )

Well, just talk about the effect. I would do one sin per paragraph, so maybe write a paragraph about one deadly sin and how it would effect you not only in health but spiritually, and then do that with all the sins. Your beginning sentence can state what sins are and you can name the seven sins. The…n, your concluding sentence will just restate your beginning sentence (only in different words. You shouldn't do it the EXACT same). I really hope this helps. ( Full Answer )
